Description of the invention: [Technical field to which the invention pertains] The present invention relates to a method for setting a regional parameter, and more particularly to a method for setting a regional parameter of an electronic device. [Prior Art]. With the advancement of technology, various electronic products have also been developed. Among them, the electronic products applied to the Internet have become popular products due to the popularity of the Internet, such as network video devices, network voice devices, network access devices, and the like. With these electronic devices that can be connected to the Internet, people can travel around the Internet. When a user buys these electronic devices from the mall, they may first encounter the problem of parameter setting. Because this electronic device may be manufactured in another country and then shipped to local sales. However, the parameters of electronic devices vary from country to region, especially in telecommunications specifications, such as ringing frequency, ringing voltage, pitch frequency or impedance of electronic devices. Therefore, when the user uses it for the first time or moves to a different country or region, it is necessary to adjust the settings of the electronic device before starting to use it. However, in terms of telecommunications specifications, not every user has a good understanding of their local telecommunications specifications, so that users often have troubles when setting up. Furthermore, it is also inconvenient for the user to manually set the parameters of the electronic device, thereby reducing the competitiveness of the product. Therefore, how to provide a regional parameter setting method for an electronic device, 5 1357016, can automatically set the electronic device according to the regional parameters of the region in which it is located, so as to solve the user's troubles and enhance the competitiveness of the product, which is one of the current important issues. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In view of the above problems, it is an object of the present invention to provide a method for allowing an electronic device to be automatically set according to a region parameter of a region in which it is located. Therefore, in order to achieve the above object, a regional parameter setting method for an electronic device according to the present invention includes obtaining an interface address of an electronic device and an Internet communication, wherein the interface address is a public address; and the interface address is queried. Corresponding to one of the regions; querying at least one regional parameter of the electronic device in the region, and setting the electronic device according to the regional parameter. As described above, the regional parameter setting method of an electronic device of the present invention obtains a public interface address for communicating the electronic device and the Internet. In the Internet, the public address can be found in the corresponding area. Therefore, the regional parameter setting method of the present invention can automatically query the corresponding area according to the published interface address and query the regional parameters of the area according to the corresponding area ( For example, telecommunications specifications). In this way, the electronic device can be automatically set according to the local area parameters, and replace the manual adjustment mode of the user, thereby solving the user's troubles and improving the competitiveness of the electronic device. [Embodiment] Hereinafter, a method of setting a region parameter of an electronic device according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the related drawings. 6 1357016 Referring to FIG. 1, a regional parameter setting method according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention is applied to an electronic device 11 connectable to an Internet INT. In this embodiment, the electronic device 11 can be a network access device or a network voice device. The user can communicate with other terminal devices 13 by connecting a terminal device 12 to the electronic device 11 and connecting to the Internet INT via the electronic device 11. Of course, the electronic device 11 of the embodiment can also be a terminal device having a network access or network voice function, and does not need to be connected to the terminal device 12. When the user uses the electronic device 11, it is necessary to set some regional parameters for subsequent use. In this example, the so-called regional parameters mean that certain parameters may have different specifications depending on the region or country, such as telecom specifications, or ringing frequency, click voltage, pitch frequency or impedance by telephone. Specifications and so on. The regional parameter setting method of this embodiment allows the electronic device 11 to set the regional parameters by itself to solve the user's manual setting problem. Please refer to Fig. 2 for explaining how the electronic device performs the regional parameter setting method of the present embodiment. First, in step S1, an interface address of the electronic device 11 and the Internet INT is obtained, and the interface address must be a Public Address. Here, the interface address may be a network address of a routing node that passes between the electronic device 11 and the Internet INT, for example, a router connected to the regional network where the electronic device 11 is located and the Internet INT connection. Public address of the gate, etc. Or the interface address may be a network protocol address used by the electronic device 11 itself. 7 1357016 After obtaining the interface address of the public address, it is possible to query one of the regions corresponding to the interface address (step S2); and then query for at least one regional parameter of the electronic attack 1 work in the region (step S3); Finally, the electronic device 11 can be set according to the regional parameters (step S4). Since all public addresses are addressed to IANA (Internet Assigns Numbers Authority) by local agencies (such as Internet service providers)

The telecommunications specification includes settings for ringtone frequencies, ringing voltages, tuning frequencies, or impedances of the electronic device 11. In the step Μ, the regional parameter is queried: the system node is queried from one of the Internet mT nodes, and the node can be a local network server, etc.; 1 From the regional parameters to the silk system _ electronic device area =1: zone f11 can be automatically completed and not manually set by the user. the way. Step S1 of the present embodiment has two types of interface addresses: "shown in FIG. 3". In the first method, step S11 is to obtain a network protocol address (IP) of the electronic device 11 of 1357016. Address) ' Then, step S12 determines whether the network protocol address is a public address. When the network colocation address is a public address, step S13 uses the network protocol address as the interface address. In the fourth edition of the Network Protocol Address (IP v4), each network protocol address is 32 bits, and the format of each octet converted to decimal is, for example, 61.230.192.25. Four sets of numbers. Among them, the network protocol address can be divided into a public address and a private address (Private Address). A public address is a location that can be recognized and used on the Internet, while a private address is used only for a local area network. The range of private addresses is usually 10.0.0.0 ~ 10.255.255.255, 172.16.〇.〇 ~ 172.31.255.255 and 192.168.0.0~192.168.255.255 and so on. Generally, the range of private addresses and public addresses is publicly known to the public, so step S12 can compare the network protocol address with a private address or a public address to determine whether the network protocol address is a public address. site. In addition, the second method of obtaining the interface address is a traceback method. In this case, the electronic device is traced back to at least the upper-age site of the above-mentioned network-like address, and the upstream address of the straight rib is a common address. The public upstream address is used as the interface address. It should be noted that such a method can be used after determining that the network protocol address of the electronic device is not a public address. Of course, the traceback method can also be used regardless of whether the network protocol address is a public address or a private link. In addition, in the present embodiment, a destination address needs to be given first, so that the device can be traced back to the destination address to obtain the desired public upstream address. Referring to FIG. 3, the first step is to obtain the upstream address of the network layer, where N is a positive integer (the N value is 1 ' above the money address _ the upper address of the upper layer 4 is judged) beginning of

Please refer to Figure 4 for the location of the destination node N5 of the electronic device u. In this embodiment, the purpose? The site is represented by a website (for example, www.chinatimes.c〇m), and this ^P point N5 is a public address that can be used. After the destination address is determined, the route from the node N5 with the -s main book is determined, and the route is set to the destination node N1~N4. Each routing node m~N4 ς,,, and other paths can be used for the area network tour: 4. The Internet Service Provider server. In the traceback process, the electronic device 11 traces back to the destination node N5 and passes through the routing nodes N1 N N4. When one of the routing nodes ni~n4 address is obtained, the electronic device 11 determines whether the obtained address is a public_right, then the traceback process is stopped; if not, the upper layer is obtained: Address and determine if it is a public address. Tian Ran, in the traceback process, the electronic device η can obtain and judge the addresses of the routing nodes N1 N N4 one by one, or obtain the addresses of all the routing nodes N1 N N4 and then determine the obtained address. In addition, the electronic device 11 may not be able to obtain a public interface address due to a problem with the local area network or the server of the network service provider. In this case, the electronic device 11 can wait for a while and then perform the traceback method again. After obtaining the upstream address of the public address, the electronic device 11 uses the upstream address as the interface address (step S16). The electronic device 11 then queries the corresponding region (step S2) and the region parameter based on the interface address (step S3). Therefore, the electronic device 11 can be automatically set in accordance with the regional parameters (step S4). In summary, the local parameter setting method of an electronic device of the present invention obtains a public interface address for communicating the electronic device and the Internet. In the Internet, the public address can be found in the corresponding area. Therefore, the regional parameter setting method of the present invention can automatically query the corresponding area according to the published interface address and query the regional parameters of the area according to the corresponding area ( For example, telecommunications specifications). In this way, the electronic device can be automatically set according to the local area parameters, and replace the manual adjustment mode of the user, thereby solving the user's troubles and improving the competitiveness of the electronic device. The above is intended to be illustrative only and not limiting. Any equivalent modifications or alterations to the spirit and scope of the present invention are intended to be included in the scope of the appended claims.
